Welcome to the Camp Internet Miwok Internet Dig where we will be learning about the native peoples of the Yosemite area. We will be going back in time to learn about these First Californians and to test your knowledge of their lifeways. As you read the question below, be sure to have your name and school name in the Your Handle box. Then when you post your findings in the answer box, we will know who is ‘speaking’. Be sure to write full sentences as your answers so we know what the question is and what your answer is ( ie, don’t just write ‘25,000’ as an answer, say “The population of the Chumo tribe was 25,000”) To get back up to the top of the Dig to re-read the questions and search for answers, type a large number – like 50- in the scroll back box, click on the chat button, and it will return you to higher up on the page. Good luck !!
